Artist Statement
Art is a visual expression of an inner journey, mine and the subject. Through technique, skill
& style, I am working to capture the soul of my subjects. This is a lifetime journey of
learning to incorporate the use of light, color, line and value in balance of composition
within a space.
Member of the Southern Arizona Watercolor Guild
Education: Mostly self-taught; studied drawing with Howard Weingarden and
Paul Mohr; attended workshops in watercolor by national and internationally known artists
Biography
Ann grew up in a small town in Northern Michigan where she first exercised her interest in the
arts with six years of professional summer stock theatre. She spent twenty years in
cosmetology and restaurant management all the while expanding the articulation of her artist's
vision. In 1989, she moved to Tucson, Arizona where she became enamored of the open skies,
errant cloud formations and immovable and immutable qualities of mountains and desert. The
subject matter of her paintings and photography capture the people, scenes and ancient
symbolism that surround her. Ann maintains her studio in the very small town of Oracle where
deer can visit her Buddha garden each morning.
